Engines pulling engines. Or are these the types that need to be upgraded as per emissions?

My guess is that they are not going anywhere but are on a siding sitting idle in storage.

That’s quite a sighting. My train watching/bird watching buddy died about a year ago. He would have loved to see these.

You’re right, if that pic is where I think it is.

There is a section of UP track along I-10 in southern Arizona that was bypassed by new rail. It is essentially a very long siding, now. And it is chock full of engines that are not in use.
